s/n 377967, Austrian 1916. Sorry, no idea how many were sent to Austria.
I had a wierd thought on wartime 7,63, not solid, just put on table -- the regular production of 7,63 was stopped in 1916, or early 1917, major effort was put on 9x19. But twenty thousand plus 7,63 were assembled from previously made 7,63 barrels in 1917-1918, those factory made "parts gun" were seperately numbered, just like those 9x19.
